A Race to (Be) The Top

Ling Xiaolu escaped from danger again, but it was a pity for the 2000 million.

"My 2000 million flew away." He was heartbroken.

"What's the matter, you go back now, let alone 2000 million, even [-] million is not a problem."

"I think your game is a bit inflationary, which is not good." Ling Xiaolu condemned solemnly.

"To be honest, your escape this time is due to the opponent's underestimation of the enemy. Given the huge disparity in strength between the two of you, as long as he is a little prepared, he will not be caught."

"Whatever it is, one run away is one time, and the cat still has nine lives."

"Also, I want to remind you that the skill effects of players and pets are not exactly the same. You should also pay attention not to get caught when using skills."

Ling Xiaolu didn't think of this at all.

"Isn't it? Then, haven't I already worn out?"

"It was okay just now, because the player also has a skill similar to Ice Archery. The Earth Dungeon is a bit dangerous, but it is similar to the effect of a skill called 'Drunken Lying Sand Field', so it can barely be fooled."

"Oh, it's okay." Ling Xiaolu patted his chest with lingering fear.

"In short, when using pet-specific skills in the future, pay attention to using more cover-ups."

"I'll try my best. By the way, should I upgrade now?"

"There is no character level in this game. It is only ranked by different types of numerical values ​​such as equipment points, pet combat power, and achievement points. There will be some novice tasks in the future. I suggest you do it to help you better understand the game."

The first task is to learn how to use the in-game screenshot and record functions.

"The thumb and index finger are at right angles, the tiger's mouth is relatively rectangular, and a viewfinder frame will appear on the virtual interface."

Ling Xiaolu did as he said: "I see."

"After the viewfinder pops up, it will automatically follow your line of sight to move and focus. Blink once to take a screenshot, blink twice to start recording. During the recording process, the single blink is paused, and the double blink is terminated."

The task requirement is to complete any screenshot. "Can I take a picture of you?" Ling Xiaolu aimed the viewfinder at Ling Long.

Linglong pinched his waist with one claw, and touched his jaw with one claw, and put on a charming posture: "Sure."

Ling Xiaolu turned his head numbly and silently took a picture of the scenery.

"Sigh," Ling Long shook his head and sighed, "You could have challenged the new photo contest."

"These are all taken from my perspective. If I want to take pictures of myself, what should I do?"

"That's my job." Ling Long puffed out his chest proudly, "Click here, gently...lightly, I'm ticklish."

After Ling Xiaolu did so, a row of menus appeared beside Linglong.

"What you see now is all the functions of non-combat pets, including taking pictures, video recording, live broadcasting, timed reminders, pet mail, etc."

"There are so many things you can do unexpectedly."

"Actually, it's something your pet can do," Ling Long said shyly, "Whether I have access or not, you can arrange it to do these things."

Ling Xiaolu clicked on the photo option, and found that there was an additional perspective of Linglong in front of him.

"The operation is the same as before."

Ling Xiaolu picked an angle he thought was the most handsome, and pressed the shutter with satisfaction.

"Now you can participate in the Newcomer Photo Contest."

"...There is no such competition, I was just teasing you."

Three minutes later, a picture of Ling Long crying after being beaten by Fatty appeared in Ling Xiaolu's photo album.

"Where can I see the screenshots and videos that have been taken?" Ling Xiaolu asked with a loose wrist.

Ling Long clambered and explained: "Swipe any finger in front of your eyes, from one corner of the eye to the other, and you can open your personal photo album. Even if you are offline, you can still access your personal photo album online. account, call these pictures and videos in the real world, just..."

"only?"

"The account you are using now is a special account. According to the agreement, you do not have the permission to read and use these archives offline."

Ling Xiaolu almost forgot about the thing on his neck.

"Oh, it's okay, I don't need it anyway."

The first task is completed, get 5 achievement points.

The second task is to activate the profile.

"The personal homepage can only be opened in the safe area, and there are four modules with different functions.

"The first module includes your equipment display, personal introduction, family or store information, etc. Other players can leave messages for you here, or send gifts."

"Well, what about the second one?"

"The second is a social module similar to the Weibo function. Any content you post here is public, and the system will automatically update the more important game history.

"The third is the private circle of friends, which can only be seen by players who add friends with you."

"I see, what's the last one?"

"It's your live broadcast room, players can watch your live broadcast here."

"It's of no use to me. I think it's too late to keep a low profile. How can it be broadcast live."

Ling Xiaolu activated the homepage according to the task guide.He is a pure and new cute, with zero fans and zero friends, no one will read what he posts, so he doesn't care about management, he hastily posted the three photos he took before, and handed in the task. Earned another 5 achievement points.

The third task is finally related to combat.

"Collect twenty spider feet, what's the use of this?"

"It is used in alchemy and can be used to make potions. It is a very common elementary material. Because it is too elementary, advanced users are too lazy to make it by themselves. Generally, it is entrusted to novices. Everyone takes what they need."

Ling Xiaolu had just seen a spider outside the town, and felt it back with ease.There are many spiders here, and they are quite big. People who are afraid of insects probably dare not approach them. Fortunately, Ling Xiaolu doesn't feel anything.

Ugly insects are more capable of killing people. If they are cute and cute, they probably don't have the heart to hurt them.He thought so.

Ling Xiaolu aimed at a spider and cast ice arrows on it.

The main function of the ice arrow technique is to slow down, and the damage is not great. Fortunately, the spider is of a low level. After hitting for more than half a minute, one of them was finally ground to death.

"To fight monsters, it's better to choose a pure damage single-target spell, such as fireball." Ling Long suggested him.

"I don't plan to play games, I want to save my talents and learn some assassin-type skills."

Ling Xiaolu picked up a dagger, the white character has no attributes, and the tattered ones can only be sold in shops.

"What are you doing with that? It's harmless." Ling Long asked.

"There you go."

Ling Xiaolu picked an unlucky spider at random, jumped into its back and stabbed it.The spider turned around to attack, but Ling Xiaolu quickly dodged it.

In this way, he walked coquettishly around and fought all the way, forehand and backhand, front and back, left and right, his figure was like a ghost, he could only see people dazzled and dizzy, for fear of losing his target in the blink of an eye.

The damage value on the top of the spider's head was 1:1. At the last moment, Ling Xiaolu held the dagger with both hands and plunged into the spider's head with force. Taking advantage of the situation, he performed a beautiful front somersault and landed firmly on the ground two meters away. .

Behind him, the mortally struck spider struggled to spit out its last thread, and collapsed convulsively, its corpse glowing.

Ling Long was about to applaud, when he suddenly saw a white figure not far from the forest, he didn't know when it appeared there, let alone how long he looked at it.

Ling Xiaolu also looked up at the moment after landing and found someone peeping, but before he could see who it was, a flash of light flashed, and there was no one in his field of vision.

Ling Xiaolu was covered in white sweat in shock: "Did you see it! It was over there just now!"

"I see," Ling Long cautiously flew to his side, lowering his voice for fear of being exposed, "It's a player in white clothes, but he teleported away, and soon, I didn't see his name clearly."

Hearing that it was a player, Ling Xiaolu breathed a sigh of relief: "I was scared to death. I forgot that this is a game. I thought it was a ghost."

"You are so fast, you are indeed suitable to develop in the direction of agility."

"What is the use?"

"Mingao can make people run faster and jump higher. Equipping Quanmin with BUFF can even achieve teleportation."

"Isn't that invincible?"

"Of course not. Full sensitivity means giving up life and strength. It is not easy to kill people, and it is easy to be killed. Each outfit has its own advantages and disadvantages, and no one is invincible."

Ling Xiaolu chatted with it while brushing, and slaughtered all the spiders in a radius of half a mile.

"Enough is enough." He picked up the last spider leg, and the bag was full.

"Go back to the city to pay, and clear the bag by the way, I have to save money quickly and buy a bigger bag."

He walked back with Linglong, and within a few steps, a signal bomb in front of him shot straight into the sky.

"What does this mean, a holiday event?"

The well-informed Ling Long suddenly lost his composure, spinning and writhing in the air:

"It's a big deal! Let's see what the World Channel says!"

Ling Xiaolu pinched his left ear: "World Channel."

The world channel is on.

[World] [Announcement] The player [Dou Kou] challenged the player [Ji Meng] solo, with a bet exceeding one million. Interested players are welcome to go to [Yuanting Town] to watch the battle.

"Oh oh oh!" Ling Long rolled his head up and down.

"..." Ling Xiaolu, "Why are you so excited?"

"The system will automatically send out an announcement if the bet exceeds 100 million for a single challenge. It's a big event for two people to meet each other! People from several surrounding cities will come to watch the battle!"

He wriggled around anxiously again: "God! Why are you in Yuanting Town? Why don't you go to Jingzhe City? It's so small here, and the mainframe is going to be stuck like a dog again. No, I have to make my colleagues prepare for emergencies."

I don't know what Linglong did. Anyway, along Lingxiaolu, he met many people rushing to Yuanting Town, and most of them were crying on the World Channel.

[World] Bai Huahua: Yuanting Town!Why am I in Hanyang Town! Can the teleportation at 16 stations still work?

[World] Shuilan Chongya: 16 stations is nothing, 26 stations SAYHI.

[World] Thin set: Be calm in the northwest corner and ask for a live broadcast.

[World] Jiuxiao: Friends in the east, how are you doing?I wish you all the stuffing [waving hands]

[World] Li Xiaoyu: I just came out of there, my mobility!

"Why can't I understand a word they said? What is a station? What is the power of action?"

"Didn't you open a point at the inn just now? If you go to a nearby inn and open another point, you can use the system to teleport, and the two adjacent teleportation points are one stop."

Ling Xiaolu understood a bit: "So the more you stand, the farther away you are?"

"That's right, every time you teleport, you need to deduct action power. The farther you travel, the more action power you deduct. When the action power is deducted to 0, you can no longer use the system to teleport. You can only run or drink action potions, but action potions The cooling time is also relatively long."

"Understood, the game company is trying to prevent players from running far away, right?"

"Mobility will recover automatically. It is not impossible to go far, but it will take a little time."

[World] Pago: [Live broadcast]

Someone on World Channel sent a link, and Ling Xiaolu clicked curiously.

The chat window was reversed, and the screen turned into a ring. The only two Shang Yue that Ling Xiaolu had seen were standing face to face, and there were still people on the top chatting with barrage:

——Why did Father Kou challenge Ji?

——Failed to catch the baby, did you find Xinshan to vent your anger in a fit of anger?

——I guess it's because the reward was counter-pressed today.

——What kind of reward and counter pressure?Is there any knowledgeable friend who can explain my confusion for me who just went online?

——Papa Kou offered a reward of 500W for the coordinates of the fan name, which was directly doubled by her husband, and he definitely felt unbalanced.Kou's father has been playing for more than a year and has not been favored by anyone. How long has it been since her husband has been here, and he dares to openly provoke him?I stand dad.

——Another fan name appeared?Well, even if there is, no one stipulates that first come, first served, let's play longer, and it's not Dou Kou's turn in terms of seniority.

Seeing the heated discussion, Ling Xiaolu forcibly inserted a barrage:

——What is the use of fighting for qualifications and money?Whoever you want to be with is the freedom of others, you must respect the wishes of the fans, and the pets caught by force are not good!

Seeing him standing still, Ling Long guessed what he was doing.

"Are you watching the live broadcast? You'll be able to witness the live version later, it's better to turn off the live broadcast, it will cause the host to be overloaded."

Ling Xiaolu closed the live broadcast window after listening to it, anyway, the bullet screens are so dense that it is impossible to see the screen at all.

Yuanting Town can be described as a sea of ​​people, all the people who came to watch gathered around the arena, arguing over various trifles.

"Can the ones in the back stop squeezing? Are you trying to squeeze me onto the stage?"

"They are all here to watch the scene, can you be quiet? If you can't do it, go home and watch the live broadcast!"

"Husband, I love you! Get rid of that old man!"

"Ah ah ah ah ah--!!!"

Ling Xiaolu was so noisy that he covered his ears.

"I said, if you have flying mounts, can you go up and make room for the people below!"

This sentence reminded everyone that many people summoned their babies and flew into the air to watch the battle.Thousands of flying mounts spread their big wings, butterflies, flying dragons, and big bats, covering the sky and the sun, making it airtight.

I thought the ground would be wider now, but unexpectedly, someone was inspired, and even the land mounts were summoned, creating a noisy mess.

"Is the elephant rider a bit civic-minded? Isn't it great to have an elephant?"

"You get off the hippo before you talk!"

"Can you give the crocodile rider a way out?!"

The escalation of the battle was about to break out, Ling Long whispered in Ling Xiaolu's ear, "Don't worry, all the colleagues on duty have already been dispatched, and they are lurking in the crowd. If there is any problem, they will be silenced and sent to prison immediately, and the order of the scene will be absolutely guaranteed."

When he said this, everyone in Ling Xiaolu looked like a GM, including those elephants, hippos, and crocodiles, and they might all be GMs in disguise.

At this time, the two people on the stage were still arguing with each other in full view.

"I don't mess with you, what do you mean by doing this?"

"What do you think? You can't be too arrogant, can you be domineering in the game if you have the surname Ji?"

"Isn't it because you doubled your bounty? You have the ability to double it again, and I didn't stop you."

"Heh, how did you get your money? Everyone here has contributed." Dou Kou incited the crowd, "This kid squanders our hard-earned money in the game, are you convinced?"

The bottom one-third of the people shouted that they were not convinced, one-third shouted that my money was my husband's money, and the other third shouted that Jingxia BB didn't fight, we didn't come to listen to talk.

Ji Meng was disdainful: "Didn't you get an equivalent exchange for your money? Did someone force you to buy your ring? Are you a primary school student when you say such things?"

Ling Xiaolu refused to accept it, why should he look down on elementary school students, did he, Ji Meng, never go to elementary school?

"Stop talking nonsense, just ask if you dare to answer?"

"Didn't I come here already? I haven't played this game for long. I may not win you in a fight. You can still afford a little pocket money. If you lose, I will thank you for your support over the years for the shareholders and uncles."

The onlookers booed:

"I have also supported Xinshan for many years, please give me some pocket money to thank me!"

"I'm an internal beta user! If you have any thanks, please let me come first!"

"If the prince loses, he will increase the drop rate of the soul for one month. Do you dare to compare!"

"agree!"

"Increase the probability!"

Everyone's opinions reached an astonishing consensus. Ling Xiaolu was surprised to see that the people from the three kingdoms who had been working independently just now had unified the world in a blink of an eye. It turned out that it was not that people could not unite, but that they lacked a common goal.

Ji Meng was even more disdainful: "I only represent myself in the game, and Xinshan will not modify the data because of anyone. If I can really do whatever I want, wouldn't it be easier to just change the fan name to mine?"

"Bah, shameless," Ling Xiaolu scolded, "Whoever wants to go under your name."

Dou Kou also said: "How many appointments are you staring at? I'm sorry you don't dare to be so arrogant. Otherwise, all the appointments will be gone. Whose money do you make?"

Ling Xiaolu wanted to see more clearly, but the people around him (and elephants, hippos, and crocodiles) were all too tall, covering the ring tightly.

He looked around and found a stone pillar not far from the arena. The stone pillar was relatively high, and it was just enough for a person to stand on it.Ling Xiaolu calculated the surrounding footholds, and thought that maybe he could give it a try.

He quietly withdrew from the crowd.

"Where are you going? Don't you want to watch it?" Ling Long hasn't seen enough yet.

"It's not that I don't want to look at it, but I want to look at it in a better place." He climbed up to the roof of a building while speaking.

"Although this place has a wide view, don't you think it's a bit far away?"

Ling Long looked into the distance, the crowd was as dense as ants.

"Don't worry, come with me."

Ling Xiaolu jumped a few nimbly, and went straight to the stone pillar. It was very difficult to find the right foothold, and even Ling Xiaolu couldn't guarantee that he could succeed once.

He calculated the distance, mastered the strength, aimed at the target, and jumped!

perfect!

Just when he was thinking this way, a ray of light flashed, and sooner or later, an uninvited guest teleported to his destination.Because he came too fast, Ling Xiaolu didn't see anything clearly, but saw the golden name flashing on the man's head.

The other party obviously didn't expect someone to jump over. Ling Xiaolu couldn't find a foothold, so he barely stepped on an edge, and when he saw that he was about to fall, at the very moment, Jin Ming, who hadn't seen clearly, grabbed his waist quickly. .

Ling Xiaolu swayed, and finally stabilized his figure, but as long as the opponent let go, he would still fall.

The arm around his waist was strong and powerful, and it seemed that he had no intention of letting him go and let him fall freely.

Ling Xiaolu broke out in a cold sweat, falling from this height, I am afraid he will recover a little bit.

Fortunately, this person responded in a timely manner, which saved him from the disaster. Even if the two of them had an ambiguous posture at this time, they couldn't care less, after all, they were his savior.

"Thank you," he raised his head to thank, "I really appreciate... Li Zheng?!"
